Must be nice fellas, did my floor last week and she was $224/yard delivered/tax in:shocking::shocking:

Thanks JT! I think I'll probably paint it all, i know if i don't do it now I'll be pissed off at myself, and once all junk is back in there it pretty much makes it impossible to do it later.

No real tricks, but this a few things i like to mention to people, no matter how long they have been wrenching. #1 - Keep your fasteners organized, this applies to size, length & head, especially important now a days with aluminum components, thread something to deep and it will usually crack...

Just finished my workbench, mezzanine and office, cant decide if i should paint it all or not, kinda like the woodsy look lol, what do you guys think?

Cool info thanks, Napa here has a nice box on sale in their semi-pro line, only difference i can see between it and my buddys snap on, is that the drawers are a bit harder to pull out the "locks", think i might pick it up on monday.

So, does anyone have the real inside scoop on toolbox manufacturers? What i mean is does a NAPA box get stamped in the same place as a Waterloo and so on? Ive been hearing rumors for years that there is actually only 2 or 3 actual toolbox factories, they just change dimensions and drawer fronts...

Made some more progress in the last couple days, 8x12 bathroom/storage room below, office up top, and a 4 foot mezzanine for more storage, below the mezzanine is where the workbench will be. Should be painting by the weekend!

I have a 40x48, kind of wish i would have went at least 64' or even 80' long, just for extra cold storage. But when i win the lottery its getting a 100'x150' addition lol

i dunno about the 2012 code, but i know the 2009 code required arc faults for bedrooms when we built our new house. Think it was the same year those tamper proof receptacles came out.

Yeah it just hooks on to the tractor and has a hyd winch on it.

Had a few more pics from the pour, but i guess im not smart enough to get them to upload lol.

And then finally today we poured the floor, trucks showed up around 9 but we didn't finish pouring till 1230, 2 loads got stopped by DOT's b/c of spring road bans. The floor is 6" thick, 30 MPA concrete, think it works out to 4300 PSI. The guys finished troweling around 7pm, I haven't been...

Had trouble finding concrete guys, ended up spending most of the winter working, but found some time to hang the clean burn furnace & get the tin on ceiling put up. We also got the walls insulated and OSB hung, didn't get any pics of it though.

Covered the dirt with gravel, poly & rebar, no floor heat for this guy, just don't care for it.

Putting up the tin & got the door hung, sorry for the lack of pictures, but i can never seem to take the time to take more lol
